Property details
The Black Lion is a long‑loved pub right in the middle of Scarborough’s buzzing town centre. Just off the high street, this listed building pulls in loyal locals and a steady stream of tourists all year round.
Inside, you’ll find two welcoming bar areas—one lively and traditional with pub games, the other a relaxed lounge perfect for easy socialising. The kitchen is fully equipped and ready to go, giving you the freedom to introduce your own menu – from classic pub favourites to a compact, high-margin menu.
One of the Black Lion’s biggest and most exciting opportunities sits right upstairs: seven letting rooms that already bring in regular visitors but have so much more potential. Think breakfasts, simple evening meals, guest add‑ons and packages – there’s a huge chance to turn overnight stays into a major income driver.
Outside, guests can settle into the sunny front seating or the cosy rear beer garden, with room for around 30 covers in total.
The private accommodation consists of one single and two double bedrooms, a lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom.

Trading style
The Black Lion – a stunning character-packed pub with seven letting rooms and a kitchen ready to make your mark and launch your own menu!
With its central location, strong heritage, consistent trade, and huge room upstairs, the Black Lion is packed with potential for someone who wants to put their stamp on a quirky, historic town‑centre pub. The landlords are open, flexible, and ready for a chat with anyone who thinks this could be their next big move.
With the business currently trading around 90% wet and 10% rooms, there’s clear space to grow both the accommodation and food offer.
The landlords are genuinely flexible and committed to helping the right operator succeed. To give you a strong start, there’s an enhanced percentage available for up to the first six months, helping boost early cash flow while you build momentum. And if you stay six months, you’ll receive a £5,000 retention bonus too (T&Cs apply).
